Even if projects are archived or trashed, project names must be unique across your entire Overleaf account in order to activate Dropbox syncing. For premium users who wish to enable collaborators to sync locally, we recommend the Git or GitHub sync options.īecause Overleaf projects are associated with Dropbox folders, in order to synchronize with Dropbox your project names must be unique. Please note that having Dropbox synchronization turned on does not enable your collaborators to also sync projects to their local Dropbox folders (unless they also have a premium subscription). This feature allows you to access the contents of your projects including the complete source code and image files of your projects outside of Overleaf, backup your work online across multiple devices, and access your work offline to work on independently.

Your Overleaf updates are automatically pushed to Dropbox and any changes you make in Dropbox are automatically reflected in your Overleaf projects.

Overleaf’s Dropbox Synchronization feature allows you to synchronize your Overleaf projects with a Dropbox folder. Overleaf premium features are available to participants in Overleaf Commons, members of group subscriptions, and owners of individual subscriptions. Dropbox Synchronization is a premium feature.
